Rotational Pharmacy Support Worker

£26.7k - £28.99k per annum
Full-time

Job Advert

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to work in Pharmacy but weren’t sure if you had the qualifications or experience to apply before? Well, if you have a positive attitude and a willingness to learn, we want to hear from you!

The NHS Fife Pharmacy & Medicines Service serves a population of approximately 380,000 people and is provided by an integrated team of around 200 Pharmacy staff, including Pharmacists, Pharmacy Technicians, Support Staff, Nurses, and Administrators. The team works across Acute and Community hospital sites, General Practices, Mental Health services, and a range of specialist teams. Partnership working is at the core of our values, and we work closely with other members of the multi-disciplinary team, including our Community Pharmacy colleagues, to deliver the highest quality care for everyone in Fife.

To support delivery of our medicines supply service, we are looking for support staff to work in our Pharmacy Stores. No pharmacy experience is necessary as full training will be provided.

If you are enthusiastic, flexible, hard-working and love working in a team then you are our ideal candidate.

Working in the Pharmacy Stores, you will assist with the assembly of medicine orders, over-labeling of medicines, receipt of goods from suppliers, maintenance of stores stock, preparation of ward orders, ward top-up, answering the telephone, computer work and reception duties. We do need you to be physically able to lift and handle medicines including infusion boxes and you may spend most of the day on your feet.

You will be based at the Victoria Hospital, Kirkcaldy but will be required to work at both Queen Margaret Hospital, Dunfermline and Victoria Hospital Pharmacy Departments. To meet the needs of the service, you will work variable shifts between 08:00-18:00 Monday to Friday and participate in a weekend and public holiday rota.

To work in the United Kingdom, there is a legal requirement for an individual to demonstrate that they have the relevant permission to work in the country. This permission is, without exception, granted by the UK Visa and Immigrations Service.

As part of the pre-employment checks for a preferred candidate, NHS Scotland Boards will check your entitlement to work in the UK. It can be evidenced through a number of routes including specific types of visa as well as EU settled and pre-settled status. To find out more about these routes of permission, please refer to the GOV.UK website here. 

It is ESSENTIAL that you have checked that you either already have an appropriate right to work in the UK or that the post would be eligible to be sponsored BEFORE submitting your application form.

We offer flexible working and family-friendly policies and fully support disabled candidates, and candidates with long-term conditions or who are neurodivergent by making reasonable adjustments to our recruitment policy and practices.

NHS Scotland is committed to encouraging equality and diversity among our workforce and eliminating unlawful discrimination. The aim is for our workforce to be truly representative and for each employee to feel respected and able to give their best. To this end, NHS Scotland welcomes applications from all sections of society.

AI tools like ChatGPT or Copilot can be great for planning and preparing your application—but your answers must be your own.

  • Show us the real you: Your application should reflect your skills, experience, and motivations authentically.
  • Use AI wisely: It’s fine to use AI for ideas or to check spelling and grammar, but don’t let it write your answers.
  • Why this matters: Applications that rely on AI-generated content may be withdrawn. By applying, you confirm your responses are based on your own knowledge and achievements.

Tip: Think of AI as a helper, not a substitute. We want to understand you—not an AI tool.
